The Sweetest Way to Die

Last week I wrote a poem for d’Verse Poets Pub about the ants that invaded our pantry while we were off on our weekend trip to the beach. One of my blogger friends suggested it might make a good children’s story. After thinking about it for a few days I decided to work one it. This is what came out. I did my own sketches and inserted them into my original poem. It ended up being fourteen pages.
If you would like a free pdf. file to make a copy of it, just email me at dwru27@aol.com .
Below are some sample pages from my book:
The original poem is here:
How sweeett! (Pun intended).
